My Lady Always Lacks Ambition

Mrs. Wang took the initiative to ask for a talisman, and naturally, Qin Liuxi would not refuse. She personally drew several talismans and folded them neatly, even specially empowering one with a waterproof spell, so that the talismans wouldn’t dissolve in water, ensuring their spiritual integrity.

A stack of talismans laid out in front of her, Qin Liuxi sat there staring until Qi Huang came over and asked, "What are you daydreaming about?"

Qin Liuxi pointed to the talismans: "Tell me, why am I good at everything?"

Qi Huang: "?"

"Look at these things, it’s like I learn them all in one go. Don’t you think I’m so smart that I might be an Immortal reborn?" Qin Liuxi said, batting her eyelashes.

This tone, really, shouldn’t be too proud and arrogant, or outside she would definitely be the one getting smacked.

Qi Huang’s eye twitched slightly and said, "Whether you’re an Immortal reborn, I do not know. Even if you are an Immortal, you’re still in the mortal world now, an ordinary person. So all these worldly matters still need to be dealt with by you. I’ve done some calculations, and the eight hundred silvers given by Lady are probably not enough to support this shop."

Qin Liuxi blanched in shock: "What? Not enough? This business of exorcism and ghost hunting, it doesn’t cost me anything, as it’s all my own ability. Even when I treat people, I just prescribe the formula and have them pick up their ingredients at the Changsheng Hall. Is that still not enough?"

Wasn’t Old Man Guan’s Coffin Shop selling old materials and still not worth eight hundred silvers?

"Let’s talk about treating illnesses first. Not to mention those who need chronic medicine, but for acute cases, don’t you need to prepare some common medicines? The shop at Shouxi Square is not close to the Changsheng Hall, and if you have to prepare the medicine on the spot, it’s an even bigger hassle. I think we should at least have a stock of common medicines. What if someone comes in with an injury? Will you need golden sore medicine, anesthesia, mulberry bark thread for stitching wounds and such?"

Qi Huang counted one by one on the abacus. Since they were going to treat illnesses, they had to have medicines, especially for emergencies.
